Last October, the Japanese manufacturer launched a program soberly named Nintendo Switch Online: Playtest Program. Those who got to try it reported that it was a test of a community game by the creators of Nintendo Labo.
Today, Nintendo announced the return of the program from July 29 to August 11, 2025 through its social networks. All subscribers to Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack will be able to apply from 4 pm on July 21 on a first-come, first-served basis.
Those located in Japan, the United States, the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Italy or Spain will be eligible. That said, you need an active subscription to Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack as well as being at least 18 years old.
